  2. What a very stubborn President. Despite people's complain he ignores all and continue to appoint only northerners. He still acts with such impunity despite 2019 ahead, Imagine what appointments will look like when he has no election ahead of him.

    1. A southerner Ameachi nominated her for the post, he argued that southerners head other two agencies under the ministry i.e NIMASA and NRC, so a northerner should head NPA. Leave Buhari out of this please.
